This episode is titled after two DC Comics characters that went by the name of "Fury." The first version was Hippolyta "Lyta" Trevor, an Amazon and daughter of the Golden Age Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor. The second incarnation was Helena Kosmatos, a young Greek girl whose parents were murdered by the Nazis when they occupied Greece, while her brother collaborated with them. She made a pact with the Furies to become the host of the Fury Tisiphone and murdered her brother. She fought alongside Hippolyta during World War II, who was traveling through time as Wonder Woman. Helena eventually made her way to Themyscira and was made an honorary Amazon. The character of Aresia bears traits of both incarnations.
This episode is supposed to follow the later episodes Injustice For All, which explains the reference to Luthor's Injustice League, and the teaming up of Shade, Grundy, Star Sapphire, and Copperhead once again.
Tsukuri is based on the comic-book character Katana. According to producer Dwayne McDuffie, she was partially based off Lady Shiva as well.
Aresia's name is a reference to Ares, the Greek god of war who would make an appearance during the Unlimited episode "Hawk and Dove".
